Recent years have seen increased interest in phylogenetic comparative analyses of
multivariate data sets, but to date the varied proposed approaches have not been …

The analysis of shape is a fundamental part of much biological research. As the field of
statistics developed, so have the sophistication of the analysis of these types of data. This …

The first edition of Geometric Morphometrics for Biologists has been the primary resource for
teaching modern geometric methods of shape analysis to biologists who have a stronger …

The recurrent evolution of convergent forms is a widespread phenomenon in adaptive
radiations (eg,[1–9]). For example, similar ecotypes of anoles lizards have evolved on …

Geometric morphometrics—a set of methods for the statistical analysis of shape once
saluted as a revolutionary advancement in the analysis of morphology—is now mature and …

Adaptive radiation refers to diversification from an ancestral species that produces
descendants adapted to use a great variety of distinct ecological niches. In this review, I …

Identification of general properties of evolutionary radiations has been hindered by the lack
of a general statistical and phylogenetic approach applicable across diverse taxa. We …

Ecological character displacement, mostly seen as increased differences of size in sympatry
between closely‐related or similar species, is a focal hypothesis assuming that species too …

Studies of evolutionary correlations commonly use phylogenetic regression (ie, independent
contrasts and phylogenetic generalized least squares) to assess trait covariation in a …
